Team North took the first two matches then went on to post a 3 1/2-2 1/2 lead over South in four-ball at the start of The Duel – North vs South – at the Camp John Hay Golf Club in Baguio today. Keanu Jahns and Justin Quiban rallied from three down and took three of the last six holes to force an all-square match with Clyde Mondilla and Rene Menor and keep Team North in the lead in the three-day event culminating in the deciding singles tomorrow. But Mhark Fernando and Elmer Salvador won four straight holes from No. 4 and battled from one-down to score a 4&3 rout of Gerald Rosales and Jobim Carlos and keep Team North within striking distance heading to today’s (Thursday) foursomes. Team North coach Temyong Murakami keeps the Pucay-Alido pair as it clashes with Ababa and Gialon in the alternate shot format with Tabuena teaming up with Rates against Rufino Bayron and Sumcad.
